Lafayette Advertiser; Last Tuesday
a tramp met with a terrible expert
enoe in the Southern Pacific yards
here, While attempting to steal .
ride he in some manner fell between
the cars and was caught in the trucks
and drawn under tho bFake-beam. In
this position he was dragged some
distance, until discovered and res
cued by the train men, Although in
imminent danger Of being crushed 70
death under the wheels, strange to
relate tile man suffered no severe in
juries from the rough treatment no
experienced beyond a few bruises,
His escape from death is looked upon
as miraculous.

Terrible Tragedy.

LEXINGTON, KY., May 8.-A terri
BILE tragedy took place this morning
near Spring Station, on the farm of
Capt. james Blackburn, ex-Secretary
of State, and brother of Senator J. G.
S. Blackburn. Miss Henrietta Black
burn, accompanied by her cousin,
Henrietta Hampstead, young lady
of 10 years, went out to shoot at a
mark with a small rifle. They were
Joined by Samuel Blackburn, young
man of %, brother of Miss Henrietta
Blackburn, and friendly contention
was begun as to who should shoot at
the mark first. The three engaged in
a playful struggle for the possession
of the rifle and in this struggle the
weapon was discharged, the ball
piercing the heart of Miss Henrietta
Hampstead and killing her instantly.
The unfortunate young lady gave
a slight scream, dropped on the blue
grass and breathed her last before her
horrified cousins realized the aw-
full calamity that had befallen them.
Messengers were hurried off for medi-
cal and other assistance, and 1t was
with the utmost difficulty that Miss
Blackburn and Miss Hempstead's
mother could be restored from the
shock occasioned by the unexpected
and terrible death Of the Young lady.
Miss Hampstead was great favorite
in the community. The funeral will
take place Monday afternoon al

Twenty Years Of Democracy.

The Democratic party of Kentucky
was reorganized in 1866 when Alvin
Duvall was nominated for Clerk oi
the Court of Appeals. AT that time
ii was not exactly respectable in this
State to be member of the Repub-
lican party, and under that name o
man in the State could have polled
10000 votes. The opposition to the
Democratic party nominated a "Un-
ion" ticket, with Gen. Ed Hobson at
the head of it. The State Govern
ment was in the hands of Thos. e.
Bramlette and John NJ. Harlan, both
of whom supported Hobson. Duvall
was elected by a majority of 10000.
The year following the Democracy
put full ticket in the field, headed
by John l.. Helm for Governor. That
year the Republican party was orga-
nized and Col. Barnes, of Pulaski,
was nominated by them for Cover
nor. Bramlette, Harlan, and few
others got out another ticket with
Judge Kincaid, Of Fayette, as can
didate for Governor. II was called
by its friends the Union Democratic
party, and by others tile "Calico-
horse party. Helm was elected by
by a majority Of 65,000 over Barnes,
and the "Calico" party carried but
two counties-Clinton and Taylor
though they elected a member Of the
Legislature in Hart.
The following year Seymour car
ried the State over Grant by majori-
tY of $4,000.
In 1871 Leslie, Democrat, defeated
Harlan. who, by this time, had be-
come full-nedged Republican, by a
majority of 10000, the negroes having
become voters the year before.
In 1872 Greely carried the State
over Grant by a majority of 10000.
In 1875 McCreary, Democrat, de-
defeated Harlan, Republican, for
Governor, by majority of $4,000.
In 1876 Tilden carried the State
over Hayes by majority of 60,OO0.
In 1879 DIR. Blackburn, Democrat,
defeated Walter Evans, Republican,
by msjoriiy Of about 10000.
In 1880 Hancock carried the Slate
over Garfield by about 10000.
In 1883, Knott Democrat, defeated
Morrow, Republican, by Il majority
of about 49,090.
In 1884, Cleveland carried the State
over Blaine by about $4,000.
The above figures ale round num-
bers. Sometimes the majorities we're
a little less than the figures given
and sometimes they were a little
greater.
If the party in Kentucky is as well
organized as was the Democratic
pafty in Indiana in 1876 or 1884, the
Democratic majority will be as great
next August asitwasin lS6S.-Times.

NEW YORK. Mar Ito day was the dullest
day in tho stock market this week, aud while
prices were Arm throughout most of the day
the trading was almost entirely professional,
and pending the final outcome OF the Baltimore
and Ohio scheme operators were waiting.
There was no news in regard to 1t or anything
else of importance to day, but rumors in re-
gard to several properties were freely circu.
lated. A revival OF the old story of nn arrange
ment between the New York and New England
and the New Haven road was effected, and sew
eral other vague rumors were circulated. The
rumor was circulated in the board in the
afternoon that the Baltimore and Ohio scheme
was of. which led IN some selling in the last
hour, but better tone was developed just
previous to the close. when It became known
that an extension Of time had been granted to
the syndicate.
The opening this morning was tame and un-
interesting, but firm throughout, the advances
over last evenings prices ranging from to "a
per cent. There was an inclination to heavi'
ness in the early dealings, but 1t seon disap.
pesred and prices brought up TO shade above
extremely dull, but remained firm; the
strength in consolidated gas being the special
feature at the time. In the afternoon there
heaviness was succeeded by REVIVAL OF the
steady hardening Of values. The last hour,
however, was marked by renewed activity, &C.
